Strange Password Problem

I have a brand new Gateway computer with Windows XP Home Edition factory installed. In both Outlook & Outlook Express, I set up my mail account with the "Remember Password" option activated, yet each time I start either application, it prompts me for my mail password? You can even see that the "Remember Password" radio button is checked (but greyed out) on the login screen yet it still doesn't apply? Any suggestions would be most helpful!
 
Go into your user account and create a password for it. After you've created it and set your password in OE you can go back in afterward and set it to nothing again. Your problem is a strange glitch since Win95... you need to initialize a certain password file in a certain way - wierd I know... but it usually works.
 
Thanks for the try Lonman...but no luck...still doesn't work?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
